- nozzlegear 1y agoThat's a very altruistic outlook on Microsoft's intent with getting everyone to use and depend on AI.
- vachina 1y agoMicrosoft is on a roll, on a roll at repackaging open source efforts and branding them, and then saying they made it.
- otterley 1y agoIsn’t that what every company that sells technology does—build demos and showcase uses in order to provoke the imagination and motivate sales? No company is perfect, but what Microsoft is doing here is hardly unusual.
- username223 1y agoI mean this in the best possible way, but I don't think you're using "altruistic" correctly. Altruism is "showing a selfless concern for the well-being of others." I think you're looking for "naive," and Microsoft is some combination of cynical and manipulative.
- nozzlegear 1y agoGood point, thanks! I meant to say that they were taking an outlook that cast Microsoft's intentions as altruistic when (in my view) the intentions are more along the lines of cynical and manipulative, as you said.
